a Dó in Malahide

25/01/2026: Always a great meal with great service.

26/10/2025: The menu was surprisingly extensive. Complimentary prawn crackers whetted our appetites, and we tucked into crispy spring rolls (more noodle and mushroom than pork, lifted by a necessary sweet & sour sauce), deep-fried chicken wings (crisp but a little overcooked and overly sweet from the honey), and juicy pan-fried pork dumplings with black vinegar. We shared a main of chicken in black bean sauce with green pepper and onions—flavourful and satisfyingly fresh—on the side, a simple, egg-laden fried rice. Drinks included Sapporo beers and a reasonably priced Table Mountain Sauvignon Blanc.
